After over 4 years of bringing our readers insights and news related to Pixar Animation Studios (the greatest film studio in the world today), Chad and I have decided to hang up our blogging hats and bring Luxo to a close. When we started Luxo in May 2004, it was with the intent to harness our admiration for the creative spirit that the Pixar team infuses into each and every one of its works and share that with the online community. Over the years, Luxo was the first and grew into the top online destination for all things Pixar, with over 2,500 unique visitors daily, and recognition as a "Blog of Note" on the Blogger.com network. Among the highlights was my trip to visit the studio in the summer of 2006 (to check out the magic first hand) and covering the Disney/Pixar merger. Luxo definitely kept Chad and I busy on top of our ever-growing professional lives. So, with the release of Wall-E (which is looking like Pixar's best!) later this week, we thought it was the perfect time to hand off to our fellow bloggers at Pixar Planet/Upcoming Pixar, The Pixar Blog, and The Disney Blog to keep bringing you the news on Pixar. We'd like to thank the marketing team at Disney/Pixar for keeping us in the loop, our readers for their comments, praise, links, and feedback, and of course, the creative team at Disney/Pixar for continually inspiring the world (and us) with its passion and magic.

Thanks for all the work you two put into the Luxo blog. It's been in my daily afternoon news cycle since early 2005, and it was always one of my favorites reads. Thanks again, and keep on watching Pixar!

Oh no! Sad to see you go! I hope you will guest write on the other Disney/Pixar blogs occasionally.

I just came from WALL-E and just as every Pixar film amazes me by outdoing the prior ones with the quality of animation and story, this one outdoes each of the prior films with that un-articulate-able heart and soul that only Pixar can deliver.

It even gives you a new perspective when you walk back out to reality at the end of the movie -- just like Toy Story 2 will never allow me to give away a doll to Goodwill ever again, and CARS made me cry over a HIGHWAY for heaven's sake, WALL-E will probably have me playing show tunes for my neighborhood trash compactor and feeling sorry for it.

As usual, it was refreshingly funny that adults without children were lined up to buy tickets as much adults with children. The opening short was brilliant.

And just like Finding Nemo, WALL-E also has a wonderful (maybe not-so-subtle) message for future generations.

Saranam Ayyappa movie is the first 3D Animation movie. It is for the first time in the telugu film industry that a full length 3D animation movie on Ayyappa is begin released. This one hour movie will certainly take you to the world of devotion and make you fell as if you are in shabarimalai.
